Ahhhh
. . . the infamous Nintendo
gameboy . . this thing DEFINED handheld
gaming, changing the face
of portable consoles forever . . to be honest,
I'd rather have a Nomad
or Turboexpress, but
the Gameboy, and later the Gameboy Color's success
at attracting hundreds of 3rd-party titles
makes it the definite juggernaut
of the handheld scene . . . I used to play
supermarioland ALL
the time, and had beaten it three
times through with a surplus of 26 lives
before the end of a particularly long road trip
(no, I wasn't driving at the
same time!) . . . this system has been
emulated everywhere, by everyone and their
grandmother, and thus the options are plentiful
& well-developed . . .

Gameboy

8 MHz Z80 work alike by Sharp with two processor modes:

Wow
. . . REW is not only a great windows gameboy emu, it does
NES and a little PC-Engine too! Supports CGB, has sound,
and is fairly fast . . . this is a GREAT emulator, and very
impressive . . . author is anonymous though . . whoever
you are, you rule!

My personal favorite DOS
gb emu, dboy runs purty fast and does a lot of stuff . .
perhaps a bit similar to VGB, but I like it better for my
own selfish reasons . . updated more recently, too . . .
check it out if you hate win emus and have a slower box

SMYGB
is unfortunately a *little* slow, but everything else is there
- GBC, sound, windowed+fullscreen mode, and good compatibility
. . . also, it's a very tiny 44Kb, great for those with really
slow connections, unlike this site ^^

NO$GMB
is a cleverly named gameboy emu that covers most of the usual
bases . . it's programmed in assembler, which means speed,
and also available for windows AND Dos . . big feature here
though is a GREAT debugger - perfect GB emu for anyone interested
in gb programming, etc.

1.
Put it in your pants! -
just about the right size to achieve that "manly" look
and impress all the girls . . plus, if it still beeps at all, get
some strange looks . . . .

2.
Fake Bomb-
On a particularly annoying airplane ride, pretend your broken GB
is actually a time-bomb,, to get that snoring senior citizen to
your left awake, and fearful . . .

3.
Sell to small, gullible child-
"it's not broken, it's just in SLEEP mode . . . you
have to feed it like a little pokemon to wake it up . . . only cost
you $60!!"

4.
Use at anti-nintendo rally -
what better way to protest Nintendo's often backwards, monopolistic
business tactics than by stomping their beloved handheld to bits??

5.
Ignore the Masses - your
gameboy may be broken, but the world doesn't have to know, and it
should still work great as an excuse to ignore anyone to whom you
DON'T want to speak (ex's, lamers, etc)

6.
Science Fair-we
all know how lame science fairs can be . . this year, take apart
your gameboy and build something creative . . as long as it beeps
or some shit, teachers will be impressed that you spent $60 for
"educational purposes" and you might get a B . . . . .

7.
Feed it to Mikie
- He'll eat ANYTHING . . . .

8.
Free admission to Asylum
. . . wanna get in with all the fun people
in the white rubber rooms? Sit staring at your blank GB screen for
hours on end, appearing to be frustrated over losing at Tetris,
and you're home free . . . .
